The best way to gamble is to gamble for the fun of it and not to make money off gambling, I know this is hard for most people but taking money away from gambling will give us great satisfaction so for sure to gamble on the safer side we need to always check the limits at which we put profits in front.
Having a responsible gambling life is a lifelong journey that requires discipline and dedication to apply all the roles that keep you on the safe side while gambling.
You are absolutely correct that is the real truth about it, because as a good gambler once you see gambling as an entertainment or having fun you wouldn't experience any much losses in gambling. Already as gambler we most expect winning but let it be something that we don't rely on, so that even if we don't win will would be able to control ourself without panicking.
Someone who has realized that gambling will often end in defeat, then they will be able to control themselves better. Because they will play safely, safe here means they will not have financial difficulties when they have lost from gambling, or in other words they are using money that is ready to lose. Maybe even for some people who have realized this, they will be able to stop completely if they want to stop, because for some people it may be easy to do. It's just that they don't intend to do that.
